Welcome to Secure Hybrid Cloud For Dummies, IBM Limited Edition. The hybrid cloud is becoming the way enterprises are transforming their organizations to meet changing customer requirements. Businesses are discovering that in order to support the needs of customers, there is an imperative to leverage the highly secure IBM Z platform to support missioncritical workloads, such as transaction management applications. The Z platform has been transformed over the years. The combination of z/OS, LinuxONE, open APIs, and the inclusion of Kubernetes has made IBM Z a critical partner in the hybrid cloud world. Businesses can transform their IBM Z environments into a secure, private cloud. In addition, through IBM’s public cloud, businesses may take advantage of IBM Z’s security services to protect their data and applications.

While some distributed enterprises look to the cloud to reduce server sprawl and centralize operations, in many cases, the cloud simply isn’t feasible. Maybe the offices are in remote locations with limited Internet service or low-bandwidth connectivity causes issues such as latency and availability. Download the solutions brief to discover why VCE VxRail hyper-converged appliances from Dell EMC are ideal for consolidating multiple applications in a remote location onto a single, high-performance and high-availability platform that’s easy to deploy and manage.

IDC recently interviewed organizations using Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (JBoss EAP) to standardize and improve their application development efforts. These Red Hat customers praised JBoss EAP for providing a cost-effective solution that enables their standardization efforts and delivers real value and savings over legacy, proprietary solutions.

Perhaps the biggest transformation in enterprise IT since the public cloud emerged is the move toward “mobile-first” application development. As mobility continues to become the new enterprise standard, developers are looking for frameworks that provide the tools they need to create innovative mobile applications without sacrificing their existing investments. While there are proven, enterprise-ready frameworks and platforms for developing and deploying traditional desktop applications, the mobile application development landscape is still evolving. Mobile Backend as a Service (MBaaS) attempts to fill the gap between traditional application platforms and mobile applications. It is the new middleware, exposing APIs and functions that enable developers to rapidly build new mobile apps and mobile-enable legacy enterprise applications.

IT organizations are constantly faced with the challenge to produce high-quality solutions with a lower total cost of ownership (TCO). With the growing recognition that open source software provides quality, stable solutions, migrations of existing enterprise applications to products such as JBoss® Enterprise Application Platform have become increasingly popular. JBoss Enterprise Application Platform provides a holistic solution that includes tools for such business challenges as business process management, enterprise application integration, and serviceoriented architectures (SOA), enterprise portals, and data services solutions.

Amadeus is a leading provider of innovative technology solutions for the global travel industry. To meet changing customer demand, the €4 billion company needed a new computing platform that was highly available, flexible, and tolerant to infrastructure fluctuations. Amadeus chose OpenShift Enterprise by Red Hat as the foundation for its new application infrastructure. When the project is complete, Amadeus expects the cloud solution to decrease system latency for better customer service, increase platform availability, streamline operations through automation, and reduce time to market for new services.

This report takes an in-depth look at the primary challenges facing IT and how the IBM X6 Portfolio can deliver the performance needed as a solution to these challenges.

Java applications have been a central technology for enterprises for two decades. This wealth of data, functionality, and knowledge are critical to enterprises. With Java-based applications, modern development can build on a platform that enables cloud-native architectures while simultaneously supporting existing applications. This combination of traditional enterprise-wide monoliths and cloud-based application deployment allows organizations to take advantage of existing knowledge and resources while actively moving toward newer application models.

TMG Health, the largest business process outsourcing (BPO) provider in the Medicare and Medicaid market, relied on a slow, batch-oriented legacy application environment that prevented it from providing continuous data visibility and access to its clients. With help from Red Hat Consulting, TMG deployed a new application platform using Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform and other Red Hat solutions. As a result, TMG reduced development time and costs and delivered real-time data access and visibility to its clients.

Business and IT executives should not have to choose between their desire to innovate for future growth and the desire to avoid disrupting current operations. Enterprise innovation that embraces and extends existing infrastructure and applications is possible through modern software architectures such as web services and SOA – as long as those investments perform competitively when measured against alternative platforms and they are able to be modernized to participate in these architectures.

Hadoop is the rising star of the business technology agenda for a simple reason — it disrupts the economics of data, analytics, and someday soon, all enterprise applications; it is secretly becoming an application platform too. Application development and delivery (AD&D) professionals should be aware of and take action on these eight predictions, including the disruptive power of “Hadooponomics,” Hadoop’s current killer app, the closing data management gap, and the emergence of brand new distros.

The retail sector is increasingly difficult and volatile. Enterprises must adopt easily available technology to liberate themselves from the daily grind and better focus on achieving their core business objectives.
